Mr. White is a fictional character in the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale, played by Jesper Christensen.
He is a middleman of a terrorist organization (the unnamed organization plays the same role fulfilled by SMERSH in the novel).
Mr. White is first seen as an intermediary between his mysterious employer and LRA commander Steven Obanno. White introduces Obanno to Le Chiffre, and arranges for Le Chiffre to bank $101,206,000 for Obanno. Le Chiffre loses this money, due to Bond's intervention, and plans to cover the loss by winning up to $150,000,000 at the Casino Royale tournament, hoping to do so before Mr. White and Obanno discover he has lost the funds. It is also presumed that Mr. White and Obanno are not notified of the casino tournament.
While Obanno is enraged over the loss of money, Mr. White is more concerned that his employer's reputation has been damaged because a contractor betrayed their trust. Consequently, Le Chiffre's pleas satisfy Obanno, but not Mr. White who personally executes Le Chiffre by shooting him in the forehead with a silenced Walther P99. This also spares Bond from further cruel torture at the hands of Le Chiffre; unwilling double agent Vesper Lynd made a deal with Mr. White's organization to spare Bond in return for the $150 million. In Venice, while the organization's thugs kidnap Vesper and battle Bond, an unnoticed Mr. White retrieves the money. With Vesper's death, it appears that the money and MI6's attempted trace to Mr. White's organization is gone, however Vesper leaves Bond the number for Mr. White on her mobile phone.
In the final scene of Casino Royale, Bond confronts Mr. White at his villa along Lake Como and shoots him in the leg with a silenced HK UMP9. White's ultimate fate remains to be seen. It has been confirmed that Mr. White will return in the upcoming Bond sequel.
